These third parties may include:
Payment Providers: To process payments, refunds and transactions.
Delivery and Fulfilment Providers: To prepare, dispatch, track and deliver orders, including international delivery partners where applicable.

6. Overseas Disclosure and Storage
Some of our service providers, ecommerce platforms, payment processors, analytics providers or fulfilment partners may store or process personal information outside Australia.
Where this occurs, your information may be disclosed to or accessible from overseas jurisdictions, depending on the providers we use and how our business operates.
We will take reasonable steps to comply with applicable Australian privacy requirements when disclosing personal information overseas. Where the Australian Privacy Principles apply, this may include taking reasonable steps to ensure that overseas recipients handle personal information consistently with relevant Australian privacy obligations, unless an applicable exception applies.
The countries in which your information may be processed will depend on our current service providers. You may contact us for further information about relevant overseas disclosures.

Our website may use cookies, pixels, tags and similar technologies to support website functionality and improve your shopping experience.
These technologies may be used to:
-
Remember shopping cart contents and website preferences.
-
Support account functionality and secure transactions.
-
Understand website traffic and visitor behaviour.
-
Measure advertising performance and campaign effectiveness.

Personalise content or advertising where applicable and permitted.
Some cookies are necessary for the website to function, while others may be used for analytics or advertising.
You can manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, our website's cookie preferences tool. Blocking certain cookies may affect the functionality of some website features.
Where required by law, we will obtain consent before using non-essential tracking technologies.
8. Direct Marketing and Your Choices
We may send you marketing communications about our pet clothing, accessories, new products, special offers and promotions where we have obtained the consent required by law or otherwise have a lawful basis to do so.
You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in the email or by contacting us at lyvovobrand@gmail.com.
We will process unsubscribe requests within the period required by applicable law.
Unsubscribing from marketing will not prevent us from sending essential service communications relating to your orders, transactions, account security or other matters where communication is necessary or legally permitted.
We will not treat the completion of a purchase alone as automatic consent to receive ongoing promotional emails or SMS messages.
9. Storage, Security and Retention
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification and disclosure.
Depending on the circumstances, these steps may include access controls, secure payment processing, appropriate authentication measures, reputable service providers and security procedures designed to protect information.
However, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted over the internet.
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including fulfilling orders, managing customer relationships, addressing disputes, maintaining required business records and meeting legal obligations.
When personal information is no longer required and we are not legally required or otherwise permitted to retain it, we will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it.
10. Accessing and Correcting Your Personal Information
Depending on the privacy laws that apply, you may be entitled to request access to personal information we hold about you and request corrections where the information is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading.
You may also contact us to request information about how we handle your personal information.
To make a request, email lyvovobrand@gmail.com with sufficient information to help us identify you and understand your request. We may need to verify your identity before providing access or making changes.
We will respond within a reasonable period and in accordance with applicable legal requirements. In certain circumstances, we may be permitted to refuse access or correction requests, in which case we will explain our decision where required by law.
Where applicable, you may also request deletion of personal information. We will consider such requests in light of our legal obligations, recordkeeping requirements and any other lawful basis for retaining the information.

If you believe that we have mishandled your personal information, you may contact us at lyvovobrand@gmail.com.
Please provide details of your concern and any relevant information that will help us investigate. We will review your complaint and take reasonable steps to respond and address it.
